The 22 pieces in this collection have been carefully arranged for developing string players in the early years of playing. Ranging from grade 1 to grade 2, each piece features easy key signatures and accessible ranges in a variety of styles and tempi. Just some of the composers include Bach, Handel, Haydn, Mazas, and Mozart, in addition to women composers Amy Beach, Mélanie Bonis, Cécile Chaminade, and Elisabetta de Gambarini. Ideal for recitals and adjudicated events, this compilation of approachable music promises musicians a rewarding performance experience. Also available for Viola & Cello (BF183) and Violin & Viola (BF184).
